Hey all, Well I was amember of this forum a few years back during the Jakks Days and I guess I've been gone so long that my original account was deleted. That wasn't the only thing. Prior to a move from Maryland to New Jersey I had amassed in the years between 2002 and 2009, a More than considerable Collection of TTL, R3 Tech, and Ruthless Aggression Type WWF/E figures. (a few choice pics) HARDCORE!!!! (And of all the Ring accessories, that little arm holding the belt over the ring for ladder matches has been really hard to locate! so if anyone can point me to one I'd really appreciate it!) Mostly Modern, Classics Start Classics middle Classics End Found some more pics from my old collection. The Two Man Power Trip Saturday Night's Main Event: The Ambush! WRESTLEMANIA 2 The Cage Match! The Man and the Game (I think that was actually a Modern Day RA Ric Flair that I put a Classic ric Flair Head on) The Kliq
Summerslam 1997 I did Have two real scale rings after all! (actually I had Three come to think of it as I had The First Wrestlemania RSR the Wrestlemania 2 RSR and the Hell in the Cell RSR . (also that cage on the HitC RSR is from the Hardcore sized HitC set but I found it makes a nice old school cage for the Snuka Muraco match (or any current WWE cage matches) (i'm not currently in the market for RSRs at this time as I have insufficient display space for that size ring setup.) Now, due to some personal issues arising from the impending move I was forced to part with almost the entire collection so that only One Cactus Jack figure Survived what i have taken to calling The Mass exodus! [/a] I am now comfortable in my new place and after a six year haitus am ready to start over from scratch recollecting if nothing else than the classics series. It's a long, arduous (and expensive!) road I'm about to Travel. wish me luck!

Nothing as exciting as rebuilding your collection, because afterwards you'll appreciate your collection much more than you did before. I know because I used to sell my collection and then rebuild it again.

Thanks here's the First installment in My Collection's resurrection THE ROAD WARRIORS (aka The Legion of Doom) Odd bit about this particular pairing of Hawk and Animal is that of the three tag team sets that came out (Road warriors, The Rockers & Hart Foundation) The Road Warriors did not come with the tag title belts (I bought the belts shown here separately) and yet they held the championship. Meanwhile, the Rockers did come with the belts but they never held the tag-titles while they were teamed together!

Some on here are aware that i had a jakks collection that totalled well over 500 figures. Unfortunately a very unscrupulous (and unfaithful) girlfriend and a supposed friend of mine, sold off my collection while i was out of state getting custody of my kids. Since then ,after spending the last 2 years mourning the loss of that collection, i have finally got the gumption to rebuild as well. Yes,its expensive and at times hard to do. But i must have them all back! So,my friend, we are both on this road together. Wish me luck, and goid luck to you also.

Wish me luck, and goid luck to you also. lol seriously though, thanks for the kind wish and my own good wishes to you friend. So far I've had two great strokes of luck Just yesterday i bought on Ebay the limited edition Ruthless aggression figure of Mankind in his debut appearance (the figure's in England so it'll take a week or two to get him in.) Also, shanemarvel7 has the ladder match arm i mentioned above and we've agreed on a price so things are definitely looking up for the start of my collection. the hard part of course is maintaining a sense of patience and not buying too much in one burst (depleting my money in the process. I do have other monetary responsibilities after all!) Edit: oops, sorry! Last night when i saw the post I thought that was an l instead of an "i" in good turning it into gold (given my name is golddragon)

The most beautiful woman...in the world! Every night, Mommy used to wake me up late, so that all her new friends could hear the beautiful music. She always understood me, but after the music died, she sent me away...to you! You understand me don't you George? (a rat) You understand that Mankind is in pain. Mankind, is suffering. MANKIND!! ...IS IN AGONY![/B] The time has come, to relieve that pan. Which will be better for me, BUT NOT SO ENJOYABLE,...FOR ALL OF YOU!!! Mommy, leave the light on,.... I'M COMING HOME!!!And here he is. The most Tormented superstar the WWE has ever seen. MANKIND! and here he is with his equally unpredictable alter ego, CACTUS JACK (Note: this figure of Mankind did not come with the black kneepads, (I bummed them off of a R3Tech Stone cold Steve austin i got with my new hardcore ring) He did however, come with a plain brown breakaway table, an urn and a black microphone.) Coming Soon: Dude Love and Stone Cold Steve Austin

Where did you get the entrance stage? I got that at a Toys R Us back in 2003 when they were all over the place. Unfortunately it was lost along with everything else in "The Purge"

And here he is (note to self buy proper "shades") The Three Faces of Foley and The New Tag Team Champions

Dude Love had been fired, Cactus Jack had retired, leaving online persona who was still eligible for a paycheck. That's right, the return of Mankind, who had last been seen almost six months earlier.For years,I had never believed this could happen. I had been respected by my peers and even idolized by certain fans, as witnessed by the "Foley Is God" signs that were gracing the Centrum in Worcester. I had shed blood on five different continents and had taken part in what were arguably some of the finest matches ever seen. Still, I had wrestled with the knowledge that I didn't look like a star, let alone a champion. I had learned to accept and even love my role as the lovable loser who somehow never wins the big one, and I can honestly say that before that day of December 29, 1998, I never believed that it would happen. But it had happened, and the reaction was heartwarming."Hey Vince! I gotta tell ya, THIS FEELS PRETTY DAMN GOOD!"
